Goal Statistics

Atletico de Madrid have been reliable in front of goal of late, finding the net in 5 consecutive La Liga outings. Their PG of 1.8 against Espanyol on Saturday suggests that run is likely to continue.

With a PG of just 0.9, Espanyol look set to find it difficult here. Add in the fact that Atletico de Madrid haven't conceded a goal in 3 consecutive La Liga matches, and it could be a long night for J. González Álvarez's men.
